Meanwhile in Shawn's head...Wow time sure does fly! It's almost time to board the Hogwarts express once again to wizarding school. I wonder if old McGonagall's gonna lighten up a bit this year and I don't wanna even think about that nasty Snape.
of course :) Where else does the Hogwarts express go? But to Harry Potter Land! You can come Eivind, I'm the sorting hat you'd be in the house of...Ravenclaw!

Sooo cool! Don't you wanna be Jason Bourne!? 42 things a CIA agent carries. Tough some of these things make me go o_O huh? I don't even clear answers Googling or Wikip'ing. And for the male agents I think they'd carry a murse rather than purse, that'd be too easy spot an agent :) http://ferfal.blogspot.com/2011...
"Thirty years ago, when I was about thirteen, I got a memory expansion for my VIC-20. (I told the whole story a while ago). Now, my eldest son Daniel is thirteen, and to congratulate him for an excellent set of end-of-year exam results, I bought him a memory expansion for his MP3 player."

"I may be a total noob for not knowing this (feel free to insult me in the comments, but please stay polite ;)), but did you guys know that in Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, you can see hieroglyphs of R2-D2 and C-3PO cleverly hidden in the background of several scenes? Behold:"

I had totally forgotten about PrintShop. That was almost as fun as NewsRoom (which I had also forgotten about until you mentioned PrintShop)

"We can't claim this figure is made of Super-Alloy Z. After all, that would mean we'd gone to Mt. Fuji, dug through the sediment to find the reservoir, brought everything back to our lab, forged Japanium, and from Japanium made Super-Alloy Z. While we love you, we're just not that ambitious. It's made of the next best thing: a nearly indestructable material called polyethylene. Are you sad it's not real Super-Alloy Z? So are we... but this is still the biggest and baddest mecha figure you'll find anywhere. An astounding 24 inches tall (that's 2 feet, folks!), this Jumbo Grendizer is a towering robot of justice! He'll protect your other figures. He'll increase your robo-cred. (What? You didn't know you had robo-cred? Better check your score!) Best of all, if the evil mecha of Dr. Hell show up, Mazinger Z is ready to conquer them. Whether you're a fan of Mazinger Z or just a collector of big robots, this limited edition figure is a must have. Sculpted in Japan by HL Product, it's made of high quality vinyl, expertly painted, and has articulation at the neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, knees, and feet."

Yes; I thought I was rid of them for good, but I inherited a bunch with my job. >.< I don't even have a floppy disk drive! LOL

12? Pffffft. That's not nearly enough for a decent game. LOL. I have some of these with data on them from 6th grade. I have no idea if they're readable right now, but it would be neat to see what I was doing in Logo Writer and Basica back then :)
- Rahsheen?
You kindled my favorite memories of yesteryears, yes, I remember.

I will never forgot struggling to pull one of these out of my dad's 5 1/4 " floppy drive. *facepalm*

Dude, I don't know how many quarters I lost to this game...
- JA Castillo
I'm pretty sure you don't regret that. Right?
- AJ Batac
Definitely not! Man, there were a few I loved to play. Remember Zaxxon?
- JA Castillo
My favorites to dump coins into were 1942 and Raiden. Oh man, I used to con my sister out of her money so I could play longer. You know...because I sucked at those games.
- Anika
Zaxxon is another one I like... so as 1942 and Raiden!
- AJ Batac
Oooh, I loved 1942! What about Tempest? Anyone ever play that one?
- JA Castillo
I only saw this game many years ago at either a Dave & Busters or Gameworks. Funny, but I totally thought, "Boy game." as I probably went to go play a racing game.
- Anika
Yes, I remember playing this, but not as much as I would like to.
